  Gravatars/blavatars (favicons) do not show up instantly after uploading them. Gravatar images are cached and frequently take several days to display after a change.

  Dashboard → Settings → General

  Do not keep uploading!
  Do not forget to select an image rating.

  See: http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/blavatars/

  Where do you expect the gravatar to display? It displays on your gravatar profile page, and on comments only unless you choose to use a theme that has author profiles that automatically display below post, or you use these widgets:
